About the authors
- The book presents a unique commentary on the traditional theories and ideas of HRM from a contemporary perspective. I feel that Ferdous' book can be utilized as a core text for both Bachelor's and Master's students looking to explore SHRM as situated in the broader global and technological context.
- Dr Syed Imran Saquib, Lecturer in Human Resource Management and Employment Studies, Alliance Manchester Business School, The University of Manchester
